Spring in Utah

One day it's sunny...






the next day it's snowing...



This is our little woodpecker friend. He is on the top left of this phone pole. He lives nearby and pecks on all the phone polls by our house. The girls are always listening for him and we even got to see him up close the other day. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera on me when he was super close, but here he is in our back yard. Clarissa stands at the window and yells "pepper! pepper!" So cute!

Visiting the Vadens

On Monday my girlfriend Rachel and I hung out in her back yard and let the girls run. It was a beautiful day and she has a great yard for taking pictures!

cute baby Maren!


Thanks for having us over. It was fun as always!

Ups and Downs

Last week we had some nice Spring weather so we (mostly) enjoyed playing outside. We had a few snags in the day as you can see from the sad faces. Clarissa was actually upset at me because I wouldn't let her pour the sand from the sandbox in the grass. Silly baby!

Nursing her baby and having a grand time!

I can't remember why Lila was upset...
mean ol' mama took my sand away!

Raining cats & dogs

On Wednesday mid-day the sky opened up. That doesn't happen all too often here, so I had to take some pictures. The rain/hail was so loud it woke Clarissa from her nap!




Clarissa is really stinkin' cute, so I just had to throw these in here.
